HURON — The 33rd annual Fair City Sertoma Club Pie Baking contest is set for Campbell Park on Aug. 16. The event, which continues to grow in popularity, wraps up the Thursday Family Night in Campbell Park activities for the year.
The judges selected for this year’s prestigious contest are Connie Hofer, a retired loan officer from different banking institutions in Huron, Diane London, the owner of the recently opened Ground Round Grill and Bar in Huron and Ted Haeder, who was recently named Vice President/COO for the Greater Huron Development Corporation.
Bakers will drop off their two-crust fruit pies at First Presbyterian Church between 9 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. on Thursday, where the esteemed panel of judges will savor the flavors and decide on a winner.
Pies are judged on appearance, consistency and taste. It is suggested that pies be baked early in the day for desired consistency.
First prize is $100 in Huron bucks, second is a six-month subscription to the Plainsman, third is $50 in Huron bucks. Fourth and fifth prizes are Fair City Sertoma fundraiser tickets.
Pie dishes not picked up at the park can be picked up at the church the next day. Please put your name on the bottom of the pie pan.
That evening at Campbell Park, the winners will be announced and there will be pie and ice cream for all.
London is the lone pie judge who has been in this position before.
